Lion Rock Speaker Series: Faculty Showcase Reading

Katharine Whitcomb, a CWU Distinguished Professor, former Stegner Fellow, and author of The Daughter’s Almanac (Backwaters Press, 2015), Saints of South Dakota (Bluestem Press, 2000), and two poetry chapbooks, has taught creative writing for Central Washington University for over a decade. Whitcomb will read and introduce several of her former students—all now CWU writing faculty—as they read from their work. This showcase includes Seanse Ducken, Sonya Dunning, and Xavier Cavazos, author of Diamond Grove Slave Tree (Ice Cube Press, 2015), and Barbarian at the Gate (2014), one of the Poetry Society of America's New American Poets Chapbook Series.
